MSC Orchestra is a beautifully designed mid-sized cruise ship and the second vessel in MSC Cruises' Musica Class, which consists of four sister ships: MSC Musica, MSC Orchestra, MSC Poesia and MSC Magnifica. Launched on 9 September 2006 and entering service in 2007, she combines elegant Italian styling with a spacious and welcoming onboard atmosphere.
At 92,409 gross tons and 293.8 metres (964 ft) in length, MSC Orchestra features 13 passenger decks and accommodates up to 3,223 passengers, supported by approximately 987 crew members. Guests can enjoy 2 swimming pools, 10 bars and lounges, and up to 5 dining venues, including specialty restaurants serving Mediterranean and international cuisine.
The ship underwent a significant environmental upgrade in 2018, including the installation of advanced exhaust-gas cleaning systems, while further enhancements and refreshes were completed during a 2024 refurbishment.
Unique selling points include the elegant Covent Garden Theatre, the relaxing MSC Aurea Spa, expansive open-deck spaces, stylish Italian-inspired interiors, and a more intimate cruising experience than MSC's newest mega-ships. Perfect for Mediterranean voyages, MSC Orchestra offers a superb blend of comfort, entertainment and classic cruise elegance.
